Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Jackfruit is rich in nutrients and contains carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals. Also, it has the composition of shredded meat, so it is considered a substitute among vegans and vegetarians.

Jackfruit affects your blood sugar levels, so people with diabetes need to know about it well before incorporating it into their diet. In addition, jackfruit lowers high blood pressure, cures stomach ulcers, and cures constipation. This curing is because of its abundant source of fibre content that reduces your appetite and hunger cravings. 


The common questions are people with diabetes eat Jackfruit? How much sugar content does jackfruit have? How to utilise jackfruit seeds and leaves for diabetes? Dive in to know more about jackfruit and diabetes and how this fruit can enable you to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

Jackfruit’s Heart Benefits

Jackfruit’s antioxidant content may have beneficial properties for your heart. Oxidation  in the body can contribute to inflammation and even elevate blood cholesterol and blood pressure. The antioxidants in jackfruit work to combat oxidation and free radicals, preventing their accumulation in cells and organs like the heart.

The soluble fiber content of jackfruit may also have a cholesterol-lowering effect. Higher amounts of fiber intake are associated with lower overall cholesterol levels as well as lower LDL cholesterol.

Anticancer Benefits of Jackfruit

There’s a lot of controversy over so-called “antinutrients” and whether or not they’re good for you. But researchers have found they serve a protective purpose for plants — and people.

Jacalin, a lectin found in jackfruit flesh and seeds, may be particularly beneficial for the immune system and staving off cancer. One study tested jackfruit’s phytochemical activity against human colon cancer cells. The study’s findings showed that jackfruit had an impact on both normal and cancerous cells, mainly through its impact on the immune system and its antioxidant activity.

Another study took this evidence further by demonstrating jacalin’s ability to modulate macrophages (an important type of white blood cell), effectively initiating the elimination of tumors in the body.

Saponins can also stop cancer cells from replicating. In one study, 35 mg/mL of jackfruit seed extract showed evidence of angiogenesis prevention, stopping the creation of new blood cells in tumors.

Jackfruit in the US

While jackfruit is a sustainable food choice in Southeast Asian countries, the sustainability of jackfruit is more complex in the US, Canada, and Europe because of transportation. While some jackfruit is grown in Hawaii, Florida, and Mexico, the majority of jackfruit in North America and Europe is imported from India, Vietnam, and Thailand.

Shipping jackfruit long distances involves significant food miles, contributing to carbon emissions and energy consumption. This diminishes some of the environmental benefits.

However, researchers also tell us that when foods are shipped, the carbon footprint of the shipping, while real, is less significant than the carbon footprint of packaging or of the food itself. In other words, from a climate change perspective, it’s probably much better to eat jackfruit from the other side of the world than beef from next door.

Weigela flowers

The tubular flowers of this spring-blooming shrub are much loved by hummingbirds. The graceful arching shape looks wonderful if you give it plenty of space to spread. Reblooming types will bloom again sporadically throughout the summer.

Camellia flowers is Beautiful

The gorgeous blooms of camellias almost don't look real! This evergreen shrub flowers from late winter into summer, depending on the variety. Read the plant tag or description so you'll know what you're buying.

Forsythia flowers

Just when you've had enough of winter, the bright yellow blooms of forsythia appear even before the foliage. This easy-care shrub makes a great (and inexpensive) privacy screen too. Look for a more compact size if you have a smaller garden.

Butterfly Bush Flowers

As you might suspect, this fast-growing shrub attracts tons of butterflies and other pollinators. Newer types are not invasive, and they also are more compact, ranging from a foot tall to four or five feet tall.

Shrub Rose Flowers

Roses aren't as finicky as you might think. Shrub roses are some of the easiest types to grow, and many new varieties are more cold hardy and disease resistant too.

Lilac flowers

Ranging from pale pink to deep purple, the conical blooms of this old-fashioned spring bloomer are intoxicatingly fragrant. Lilacs make a great hedge or accent and also attract butterflies. New types are more compact and rebloom throughout the season, so they're great for smaller gardens.

Abelia flowers

Abelia has beautiful pink, purple, or peachy bell-shaped flowers in late spring. New types are more cold hardy. Plant it in a mixed border alongside perennials.

Rhododendron flowers 

Showy spring flowers in purples, pinks, yellow, and white pop against the glossy green foliage of this shrub. New varieties of rhododendron are more cold tolerant, but make sure it gets dappled shade.
